The Martial Saint who slays demons starts with refining insects

Nangong Hongyue had already guessed Su Yan's identity to some extent.

Being able to control so many contracted beasts and having such a strong body, if he is not an old monster, then he is most likely a disciple of the Beast King Sect.

Such ability is truly astonishing. She did not slack off at all in cooperating with Su Yan.

She personally led the priests and their guards, as well as Yang Kun and several others, to lead the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce and directly attack the many counties and towns outside Nantian City.

Nantian City is a prefectural-level city, which governs Bianshan County, Mengtang County, and Wanning County. The outer circle includes Yunlan County, Bailu County, and Lishan County.

The medicine mountains, sources of medicinal materials, and animal farms of Tianyuan Danfang and Dachuan Danfang are all located in these counties.

Yang Kun had already figured out the power of the two alchemy workshops. Now he directly targeted the two counties of Bianshan and Wanning, as well as the outskirts of Nantian City.

These three places have the closest industries and the most distribution, making them the most suitable for sudden action.

In less than three days, Nangong Hongyue, Yang Kun and their men took over all the industries in the three areas with ease.

"There are three breeding grounds in Nanyang Mountain, Bianshan Valley, and Xiaomeng Mountain, hundreds of musk deer and Xiangxi cattle..., seven medicine mountains, and two refined iron mines... It is worthy of being the alchemy workshop of Nantian City. It is really rich."

Su Yan looked at the accounts sent by Yang Kun. These were just the resources they had successfully obtained and were under their control.

In fact, if there are enough manpower and time, it will not just be an industry on the surface.

There are also families and forces that are dependent on the two alchemy workshops, and even the elixir and medicinal material shops in various counties and towns. If all industries are taken over, it will be an industry worth at least several million yuan stones.

If so many Yuanshi were turned into resources, if one had some talent, perhaps a Danqiao realm warrior could be created.

"Master, there are still many industries in the two counties of Bianshan County and Wanning County. If we mobilize manpower from Yuncang Town, we can take over at least 60% of them in just half a month."

Yang Kun still wanted to maximize his profits, but Su Yan waved his hand.

"Need not."

Su Yan glanced at Nangong Hongyue beside him, and then said, "Let's go back to Nantian City."

After returning from Nanyang Mountain, Su Yan and Nangong Hongyue were extremely high-profile and rode their horses straight into Nantian City.

The four priests under Nangong Hongyue, together with Yang Kun and his two companions, led their men directly into the shop of Dachuan Danfang.

They showed no mercy and knocked down all the guards of Dachuan Danfang who were already in a panic. Although the one who stayed behind was the fourth manager Yang Lugong, his cultivation was already at the Condensation Stage.

However, facing the siege of seven True Artistic Realm warriors, and Su Yan placing the gold-eating monster insect next to Yang Kun.

After fighting for less than twenty rounds, he killed the man.

The town government’s mountain protection army came directly with two team leaders, totaling twenty to thirty people.

Such a fight in this city is bound to cause a lot of trouble.

Everyone in the city is ready to watch the fun.

"Capture him and take him back to the tutelary fort and lock him up."

The two captains were both warriors at the second level of the True Realm. When they saw Yang Kun and his men, their eyes narrowed, but they did not take direct force. They just ordered the mountain protection soldiers to move forward.

The mountain guards are all disciples of the Beast King Sect. With this kind of identity, no one would dare to take action unless they were directly at odds with each other.

As for being detained in the garrison, that might not be a big deal.

"Wait"

Nangong Hongyue finally showed up and stopped the disciples of the Mountain Protection Army.

"Captain Du, Captain Wang, I'm afraid it's not a good time for you two to take action today."

As soon as Nangong Hongyue appeared, the two men straightened their bodies and held the hilts of their swords: "Master Nangong, fighting in the city and flattening the shops in the market is against the rules."

If the rules are broken, people may not be killed, but the apparent order must still be maintained.

"Yang Lechuan of Dachuan Danfang teamed up with Wuyinglou to assassinate me. Do you think this is a bad rule?"

When these words came out, everyone gasped.

The two captains looked at each other, their eyes fixed, but there was not much shock in them.

"Master Nangong, you must be responsible for what you said."

"snort"

Nangong Hongyue snorted coldly, and the aura of the Half-Step Danqiao was completely released. Half of the street was shocked by this aura.

Even though Du Yunqi and Wang Wu were prepared, they still felt a huge amount of pressure on them at this moment.

"Do you believe it?"

Du Yunqi looked solemn: "Half a step to the alchemy, this woman broke through secretly, I'm afraid there are other means, Dachuan Danfang and Tianyuan Danfang are probably both doomed."

"Master Nangong has great cultivation skills"

Du Yunqi withstood the pressure and first praised him, then said: "It is reasonable to fight between two families because of their grudge. You don't have to take the person, but you must fine him according to the rules, and the next move cannot affect innocent people."

“Yes,” Nangong Hongyue nodded, “Liang Hao, you and Captain Du go to the garrison to pay the fine.”

"Yes, sir."

A farce ended in front of the eyes of the people of Nantian City. Almost all the shops and warehouses of Dachuan Danfang were taken over by Hongyue Danfang.

The alchemists, shop assistants, and servants in the shop were all detained.

As soon as the door was closed, Yang Kun, holding a sheep-horn sword, began to identify and cleanse, picking out the original descendants and diehards of Dachuan Danfang one by one and killing them.

In Nantian City, a storm quietly started.

The ruffians and gangsters on the street seemed to have gained courage and started to provoke people in some shops.

Debt collectors, debt collectors... appear one after another.

They all took action against the shop under the name of Tianyuan Danfang without any prior arrangement.

Not only them, but also teams of warriors left Nantian City openly or secretly, heading towards various counties like hyenas.

There are endless street fights, and every day when you wake up, there will be a few more corpses on the streets.

The turmoil lasted for a full half month, and no less than a hundred people died, before it gradually subsided.

The forces related to Dachuan Danfang and Tianyuan Danfang were completely wiped out in this turmoil.

The signs and banners were replaced with new ones, and everything seemed like a new beginning.

Inside Danxiang Pavilion, Deputy Pavilion Master Shan Chunhe was smiling.

"There are seven medicine mountains in the three outer counties, four shops in the city, and supply sources from twelve counties and towns... Tianyuan Danfang is really well-off. It would be great if Dachuan Danfang was also like this."

A beautiful woman in a pink dress sitting nearby shook her head slightly, "Eat it all. You are not afraid of the counterattack of the Ouyang and Liu families. We at Danxiang Pavilion focus on the elixir business. These families are much more ruthless than us."

Shan Chunhe said, "Hongyue Danfang has taken over at least 40% of Dachuan Danfang's power, especially the several places where wild beasts are raised. That woman is quite capable."

Wan Xueping raised her eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "I don't recommend touching her."

Shan Chunhe showed a look of astonishment, then laughed: "I just felt sorry for her, how could I touch her."

He said sternly, "This girl has only been in Nantian City for ten years, but she has built a pill shop that is only slightly weaker than Tianyuan and Dachuan. Her skills are amazing, and she is not very old, but her cultivation has already reached the half-step of Danqiao. I am not stupid to offend her."

Although Danxiang Pavilion and Hongyue Danfang are in the same industry, the alchemy business is not a zero-sum game of either this or that.

Although there is indeed a conflict of interest, the number of warriors in Nantian City is so large and the demand for elixirs is so strong that it is impossible for Danxiang Pavilion or Hongyue Danfang to take over completely.

They are different from the aristocratic families. The ever-expanding aristocratic families have to support more clansmen and slaves. They need to demand resources from the land and are more eager for power.

The struggle between aristocratic families is often a life-and-death struggle.

For example, the Qing family, which controls Lishan County, does not allow anyone to interfere easily.

Shan Chunhe's eyes narrowed slightly: "You said, should we win over Nangong Hongyue? Such a young person who has reached the half-step Danqiao stage may be able to break through the Danqiao stage and become a real person."

Danxiang Pavilion has its own system of elders. Absorbing talented people and constantly strengthening its own foundation is the way for Danxiang Pavilion to become stronger.

"No"

Liu Xueping's eyes flickered, but she refused decisively: "If she is only half a step into the Danqiao realm, then I can get close to her, but the Danqiao realm... do you think Nantian City will allow the emergence of a ninth Danqiao realm warrior?"

Shan Chunhe's eyes narrowed, knowing that he had spoken out of turn: "I spoke too much, this matter must be decided by the Pavilion Master."

The Pavilion Master is the real owner of Danxiang Pavilion and is also a famous third-level alchemist in Nantian City.

However, in recent years, in order to seek a breakthrough and increase his lifespan, he has been spending longer and longer periods of time in seclusion, which is why the two deputy pavilion masters were asked to take charge of the affairs of the Danxiang Pavilion.

Pavilion Master...

Liu Xueping's eyes flickered slightly, and she exchanged a glance with Shan Chunhe. After pondering for a while, she said, "We need to report to the Pavilion Master, but we can't offend her too much. After all, it was the Red Moon Pill House that took the initiative to give up that big piece of fat meat. How about this, give her the lower-grade third-level Panlong Blood Root."

"good"

…

In Nangong Danfang, almost everyone was busy at this time.

Because of the expansion, Nangong Hongyue's original subordinates were not enough. Even with the secret help of Yang Kun and his men, they could only barely maintain operations.

Yang Kun and Nangong Hongyue agreed that although the Holy Insect Chamber of Commerce and Hongyue Danfang would maintain cooperation, they would still be two forces in public.

In this way, it is indeed good news for Su Yan, after all, it can conceal his identity.

However, there is no better way to control more forces at the moment.

In front of Su Yan, four priests knelt on the ground, their faces flushed red, veins bulging, and they were enduring unimaginable pain.

Next to them, there were two burly, muscular men, half-kneeling on the ground with ferocious expressions.

It took them a full quarter of an hour to recover.

He panted heavily and knelt down, saying, "I am your subordinate, paying my respects to my master."

"Go down, each of you obey Hongyue and Yangkun, and take control of the resources in your hands."

"yes."

The six people slowly retreated from the backyard, and Nangong Hongyue then walked forward.

She whispered, "Based on the Blood Marrow Worm's methods, it can control more True Realm warriors."

She had personally experienced the power of the blood marrow worm. Even at the Divine Fusion Stage, it was difficult to resist the control of the fusion symbiosis. One worm, one life. It was definitely evil.

She even suspected that even a warrior at the Danqiao realm would be seriously injured or even disabled if he wanted to get rid of the blood marrow worm.

You know, the human spine is of paramount importance and should not be easily injured.

"Controlling life instead of mind, this method is not as powerful as you think."

Among warriors, there are many who do not care about their lives.

Although the blood marrow worms are powerful, if such methods were known by too many people, they would be afraid of Su Yan.

Starting from Yang Kun and his five men, they controlled people by using fate, and then they used both kindness and force.

As for Nangong Hongyue, she also had a strong desire to survive, and she was also of some use, so she resorted to the means of the blood marrow worm.

Now, we are using both kindness and force, and giving her hope for revenge, which is why we have issued the order.

If used against others, this kind of threat may not be omnipotent.

Nangong Hongyue was slightly stunned, looking at the few people who had just left, and said: "They are all civilian warriors with limited resources and potential. If they get the blood marrow worm, it would be an opportunity."

The two guard commanders were prisoners captured from Dachuan Danfang.

He is tall and strong, but extremely afraid of death.

When Yang Kun and his companions were searching for Dachuan Danfang, in order to save his life, he became a complete guide.

If someone is so afraid of death but still has some abilities, then he is easy to control.

As for the four priests, they accepted the control semi-actively.

It's nothing, they just know too much.

I vaguely guessed what kind of big thing Su Yan and his men had done to destroy two alchemy workshops in one fell swoop.

The more you know, the more dangerous it is.

They used to be just worshippers, and if they wanted to survive they had to get closer to Nangong Hongyue and the others.

This is how the current scene came about.

"Have you divided up all the fat outside?"

Su Yan asked Nangong Hongyue to sit down. She nodded slightly and said, "60% of the assets of Dachuan Danfang are left. The Ouyang family took 30% and the Liu family took 20%. Tianyuan Danfang Danxiang Pavilion took 40% alone, and the rest was divided between the Liu family and the Ouyang family."

Nangong Hongyue only gave a general idea. In fact, when the wall fell, everyone pushed it. The reshuffle of these two alchemy workshops and related forces made the eight major families and various small forces in the city reap huge profits.

"Someone is causing trouble for Red Moon Pill Shop?"

"There were a few blind gangs who wanted to steal food, but they were wiped out by Wang Ping and his men."

Wang Ping is one of the worshippers. He is forty years old and has reached the second level of the realm of truth.

"good"

Su Yan nodded, and Nangong Hongyue took out two brocade boxes, and then said: "Danxiang Pavilion and Ouyang family sent gift boxes, saying that they congratulate me for breaking through the half-step Danqiao."

Su Yan opened his eyes slightly, showing a look of surprise, and then smiled.

He opened it and saw a third-grade, low-grade Panlong Blood Root and a third-grade, low-grade Blood Scale Fruit.

"You are willing to spend money on these. They are all top-grade treasures that nourish your blood and bones, and they are very compatible with your alchemy style."

On the surface, it was congratulations on their breakthrough, but both Su Yan and Nangong Hongyue knew that it was a thank you gift to them.

Of course, there must be some reasons why they are unable to swallow up so many benefits.

But I still have to accept Nangong Hongyue's friendship.

This is also the cleverness of their interpersonal relationships.

"The Liu family didn't send it?"

Su Yan suddenly became curious. Nangong Hongyue snorted, "The Liu family's ancestor is less than 200 years old. He is in his prime. He looks down on other families."

It was up to the other person whether to give it as a gift or not. Su Yan just narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't care too much.
